ROY G. BIV: An Exceedingly Surprising Book About Color


http://www.kidzartblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/roy-g-biv.png
ROY G BIV, the acronym for the order of colors of the rainbow: Red. Orange. Yellow. Green. Blue. Indigo. Violet. In this new book by that name, a writer and design expert provides a new way of looking at the world and shows how we use color to interpret things in our daily lives.

According to the author Jude Stewart, “I wrote ROY G. BIV to reawaken our eyes to color, so we can see how startling and amazing this everyday phenomenon is.”

Find out what colors mean, hear stories about colors and inform your eye at multiple levels. Learn how color associations vary by culture and geographic location.

This is a wonderful book for artists, art teachers, designers and anyone interested in and amazed by color.
